Former Delhi deputy chief minister and senior Aam Aadmi Party leader Manish Sisodia walked out of Tihar jail on Friday evening after remaining incarcerated for 17 months. The bench of Supreme Court Justice B R Gavai and Justice K V Vishwanathan, while granting him bail in the corruption and money laundering cases, said, "In our view, keeping the appellant behind bars for an unlimited period of time in the hope of speedy completion of trial would deprive him of his fundamental right to liberty under Article 21 of the Constitution. ...Prolonged incarceration before being pronounced guilty of an offence should not be permitted to become punishment without trial." from IndiaTV India: Google News Feed https://ift.tt/FZJ9Yte
